Christmas Reindeer Magnet Craft

This is a cute refrigerator magnet idea that's great for Christmas and you'll want to keep up all year round.

Materials:

  • simple reindeer template from a coloring page
  • cardboard square about 6" x 6"
  • piece of colorful Christmas wrapping paper, 6" x 6"
  • 1 magnet or strip of magnetic tape
  • glue and paintbrush
  • pencil
  • 2 google eyes
  • scissors or box cutter

Directions:

  1. Glue the wrapping paper to the cardboard.
  2. Use the reindeer template and trace the reindeer on the back of the cardboard.
  3. Cut out the reindeer
  4. Brush glue all over the front of the reindeer to make it shiny and give it strength. Allow to dry.
  5. Add to google eyes.
  6. Glue a magnet strip to the back.
The same concept could be applied to a different Christmas character or other theme.
